Loyola University - Wolf Yearbook (New Orleans, LA)

Beginning the 1962-63 school year on a spiritual level, Holy Name of Jesus church fills with faculty, seniors and freshmen asking God ' s guid- ance. The Rev. Edward A. Doyle, SJ., distributes symbolic seals to the beanie-topped freshmen and keys to the seniors at the Key and Seal ceremony. Noon Mass and Communion is a daily habit for many Loyolans. Enjoying a light moment before going into Mass, the Jesuit faculty passes before Loyola in procession. Tassels dangling, two seniors pause to find the day ' s Mass in their missals. 19

Religion Enriches Loyola In the horseshoe on Loyola ' s front yard stands the graceful ivory-white statue of the Sacred Heart, its arms outstretched in an all-embracing ges- ture. It has stood thus for decades. For 51 years the priests of the Society of Jesus have ingrained His teachings to their charges under the patronage of St. Ignatius of Loyola. On the seal of the university there is the image of the house of Loyola, the Fleur-de-lis of French Nev Or- leans, and Louisiana ' s mother pelican feeding her young. For God and Country reads the motto on the seal. It sums up the goal towar ds which her faculty seeks to guide those under them. God and country: love the former and love for the latter will follow. Creation is not divided into secular and religious, and a complete edu- cation must show the thread of God ' s plan which runs through His uni- verse. Knowledge of God is not confined to the classroom. He is sought and discovered in casual conversation, so- dalities, and daily Mass at Holy Name church. A mature faith is the goal of a Catholic university. P f '
